GATV debuts emergency maneuver training video

Pilots can see an introduction to Emergency Maneuver Training on General Aviation TV On-Line (GATV). Filmed over the ocean shoreline above Ft Pierce, Florida, in October, the video is meant to inform pilots about the availability and content of Emergency Maneuver Training.

The video begins on the ground with a discussion about emergency maneuvers and concludes with video and audio from the cockpit during emergency maneuvers.

The GATV video is meant to be instructive to general aviation pilots, flight instructors, student pilots and other people interested in flying airplanes, said its producers.

In the video, Dave East of GATV and Jim Alsip of Dylan Aviation at Florida’s Indiantown Airport (X58) discuss the Emergency Maneuvers Training syllabus offered at Dylan Aviation Aerobatic Flight School. Alsip makes the point that studies show almost all aviation loss of control accidents involve a turn, so the Emergency Maneuver Course begins with the anatomy of a turn, reviews several advanced flying skills and concludes with flying emergencies and best practices for the resolution of those emergencies.

The video can be viewed on line during the month of November at GATVOnline.com.
